Recently, the director of the Institute for Process Engineering, Process Automation, and Measurement Technology, Prof. Frank Worlitz, welcomed some very special guests to the Zittau Power Plant Laboratory (ZKWL)—children from the “Knirpshausen” daycare center along with their teachers.
The teachers had asked if they could visit the ZKWL. The reason for this was undoubtedly the donation of the prize money—awarded to the young scientists who received the “Prof. Hans-Joachim Hildebrand Prize”—to the “Knirpshausen” daycare center in Zittau.“It was wonderful to explain the technology to the little ones,” said Prof. Worlitz. “I had brought a model with me to the ZKWL to better illustrate magnetic processes to the children, and I was surprised by how enthusiastic the children were and how many questions they asked. “The time flew by,” Prof. Worlitz continued. “Perhaps in a few years, we’ll be able to welcome one or two of these little ones back to our university as young men or women to pursue their studies.”
